Petition demands E! to remove The Kardashian's from the air!!


So the Kardashian drama continues but this time, for the worst!!
There are numerous reports surfacing the web, about a petition that Anti-Kardashians viewers signed on www.GoPetition.com, demanding E! Network to remove "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" from programming. These viewers are extremely fed up with the lies and want the show cancelled. Petition originator, Cyndy Snider, plans to continue collecting signatures, to present to the E! Network soon.

Here's a copy of the petition below:

"Dear E! Online,

We are respectfully requesting that your network find other shows to air.

'Keeping up with the Kardashian's is just not viewing that we the public, would like to see from your network. Enough is enough.

I am asking people to sign a petition that will be forwarded to E! Online to request that the show, 'Keeping up with the Kardashians,' ends."


Snider also stated,
"We feel that these shows are mostly staged and place an emphasis on vanity, greed, promiscuity, vulgarity and over-the-top conspicuous consumption."

The petition, which was posted on Nov. 2, 2011, days after Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from her husband, NBA player Kris Humphries, after just 72 days . So far, has collected nearly 150,000 signatures .

Kim has recently been under extreme scrutiny, following her abrupt split from her husband Humphries, which led many to questioned, if the marriage was real at all. It is also rumored that the wedding alone, raked in over 17 million dollars.

I'm not sure how this is going to play out because "If it's not making dollars, Then it's not making sense! However, this show is and has been raking in a lot of cash(millions) and ratings!! Let's see what the numbers are for the next season, to see if it's making any sense!!! Either way, "The Kardashian's" are laughing all the way to the bank, with their millions, they have made in a short period of time!!

Do you think this show will last? What are your thoughts?

Stay tuned to see what happens on the next "Keeping Up with the Kardashian's"........

Shots fired at the White House today.


According to Associated Press Reports— The Secret Service says a bullet hit an exterior window of the White House and was stopped by ballistic glass.

An additional round of ammunition was also found on the exterior of the White House. The bullets were found Tuesday.

The discovery follows reports of gunfire near the White House on Friday. Witnesses heard shots and saw two speeding vehicles in the area. An AK-47 rifle was also recovered.

The Secret Service says it has not conclusively connected Friday's incident with the bullets found on the White House grounds. U.S. Park Police have an arrest warrant out for Oscar Ortega-Hernandez, who is believed to be connected to the earlier incident.

It is confirmed that President Obama arrived in Australia safely on Wednesday, Nov.16, 2011 . He was greeted by Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard and had an official arrival ceremony at the Parliament house.

I am so happy no one was harmed by this individual or individuals and hopefully will be caught soon!!

Please keep our President, his family, and the people that surround and protect him in your prayers!

Thank you! xx

“T.I. & Tiny's new show:The Family Hustle!!


Multi-platinum recording artist T.I. is back!!! He can be seen in the new series “T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle,” premiering on December 5, 2011 at 9PM ET.

According to VHI:

Viewers will get a behind-the-scenes look at the most private moments of the Grammy-winning artist as he is reunited with his wife, Tameka (a.k.a Tiny), and his children following a 12 month prison sentence that was completed several months ago.

The new series follows the “King of the South” at his most vulnerable, as T.I. re-acclimates back into his life as a father, husband, son, musician, apparel magnate, businessman, actor and best-selling author (Power & Beauty).

During filming of a music video, the audience will catch a tender moment as T.I. teaches his son the importance of education and doing his school work. For the first time, fans will get to know T.I.’s children and see their reactions as they realize their father is a member of Hip Hop royalty. T.I. even begins to instruct his eldest son, Domani on the secrets to putting on a great concert performance and allows Domani (aka T-Money) show off his skills in front of a crowd of 3,000 at the Scream Tour.

“Tameka and I have a strong, loving family,” said T.I. “In this family documentary, you will see the challenges of raising children while balancing a career. It’s like a lot of families, only our home is in the spotlight.”

Viewers will also catch a glimpse into the very loving and always fascinating relationship between T.I. and his wife Tameka, who has faithfully stood by T.I.’s side through his highs and lows and who herself was a former member of the ’90s Grammy-winning pop group Xscape. The mother of two of T.I.’s children, along with her own fifteen-year-old daughter, Tameka was forced to hold down the fort while T.I. was behind bars. Viewers also are introduced to the OMG GIRLZ, a new up-and-coming pop group that Tameka manages. Tune in to see T.I. back on his throne, as he reclaims his kingdom, rebuilds his businesses, and reconnects with his family and friends on “T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle” premiering on VH1 December 5th at 9PM*.

Singer Adele cancels U.S. tour!!!



According to the promoter, Live Nation, My favorite UK singer Adele cancelled her US tour, due to complications with her vocal cords. Adele appears to be suffering from an untimely hemmorhage in her vocal cords, which caused previous appearances, earlier this year, to be postponned.

Currently refunds are being offered, However, there will be rescheduling as soon as she recovers.


Here is a statement from Adele: “Singing is literally my life, its my hobbie (sic), my love, my freedom and now my job. I have absolutely no choice but to recuperate properly and fully, or I risk damaging my voice forever. I have great confidence in believing you know how much this upsets me, how seriously I take it and how truly devastated and annoyed I am by this. wanting to do something so bad and not being able to is the most frustrating thing as im sure you know! my voice is weak and I need to build it back up. I'm gonna be starting up vocal rehab as soon as, and start building my over all stamina in my voice, body and mind. I will be back and im gonna smash the ball out the park once im touring again. I apologise from the bottom of my heart, sincerely I do. I know its not only disappointing because of the show, but its plane tickets, hotel bookings, birthdays, anniversaries and time wasted. but please have faith in me that this is the only thing I can do to make sure I can always sing and always make music for you to the best of my ability. Truly yours and yours only forever, Adele xx”
